KneeHab 2 & KneeHow are good to use every other day, as there's more muscular endurance exercises & complexity in the exercises (stretches, too). I wrote a review that contains the exercise breakdowns for each segment, if you're interested in seeing the sequencing of exercises (time, reps): http://www.videofitness.com/reviewsd...ew.php?id=3971 I don't have history of knee issues (clicking), but did have some mild knee pain from all fours floor-work (a thick mat remedied that issue). But I do like the self-massage/rolling, it does make you aware of what's tight & needs to be worked on, and the other segments provide solid stretches & muscular endurance exercises for the entire lower body (not just knee but hip & ankle), so anyone can really use these (not just people w/ knee issues). |

I have had the ACL replaced in one knee and eager to keep both knees in good shape. So I have tried this DVD and some of her other programs.
I did Prehab and her ankle one (issues there too) almost everyday this summer. My legs were tight to start with and the ball exercises were painful at 1st. When I first started I was only doing the rolling twice a week and wasn't seeing much improvement, but started doing it almost everyday, and there were lots of improvements. I went through the strengthening segments, only the last one was good, didn't find benefits in the others. My knee operation was about 10 years ago, and maybe the easier segments would good for someone still recovering. Writing this makes me wonder how the ball rolling would feel now. Have my legs tighten up? I plan to find out tomorrow. |

When I read this I was going to ask you what kind of condition this was! LOL til I read it the second time in your post and it finally stood out! LOL I used the pre-hab 2x's before I traded it to you and it made a difference in how my knee felt. & It does not feel good to roll around on those balls. But it seemed to help. |
